Hello again! And welcome back to another installment of Roommates!

Here's what happened last time on Roommates:

"Why are we here?" Jinx demanded angrily. Her eyes sparked electric pink. Slade stared at her impassively.

"You are here to supply me with information."

In that moment, Slade finally brought his hands out from behind his back. He drew a…

Exciting, no?

Sodium Pentothal (Bad Drug, Really Bad Drug)

"Beware Jinx" Beast Boy cautioned her seriously as he crouched behind her. "He's got a needle." Jinx rolled her eyes at her cellmate's antics.

Indeed, the object in Slade's hand was a syringe. A syringe that held a strange purple liquid.

It's almost like—, the witch began to muse. Nah, it couldn't be.

"I require the information to—" Slade's tone lowered menacingly. "Destroy Robin."

"Never!" the changeling screeched.

The witch was of a different mind. "And then you'll let us go?"

"Jinx!" Beast Boy whapped her shoulder.

Now, under normal circumstances, Jinx would have responded. But, alas, these were no normal circumstances. Why exactly did Jinx not respond, you ask? Well, this is why:

Directly after the shapeshifter's exclamation, six of Slade's robots entered the room.

"Uh-oh" was all Beast Boy got out before the robots were upon him and Jinx.

In a matter of seconds, milliseconds, the color duo were pinned down by the robots. Three robots held the struggling Beast Boy as Slade menacingly stalked closer to him. The changeling's green eyes widened impossibly wide at Slade's next words.

"This serum is called sodium pentothal" Slade stated, lifting the syringe to the overhead light and letting the purple substance sparkle dangerously. He glanced down at the green teen, hand still raised to the light. "Better known as a truth drug."

Then he injected the liquid into the struggling teenager.
